  1. I made some named business card holders from 2x4 redwood.
  2. Dave, thanks for sharing. I am always looking for new products for our craft.
  3. I have a Dewalt 12" compound saw. Very happy with it, no problems.
  4. Wow! Great job on the compound cuts.
  5. Welcome back! Just hang around The Village and read when not scrolling. There are a lot of good and informative articles that will keep your mind entertained and away from thoughts of depression.
  6. Beautiful job, Dave!
  7. Thank you, Kevin. I will try cleaning the around the speed dial with air pressure.
  8. I purchased my Pegas s/s in April, 2022. I use it about once a week for an hour or two since I have other saws. I run the saw at the 1 O'clock position on the speed control knob. Yesterday, I was cutting a puzzle and all of the sudden the speed increased without me touching the speed control. I played with the speed control and was able to reduce the speed by placing the speed control knob at the 10 O'clock position ( which I thought was close to the speed at the 1 O'clock position). Can anyone tell me what could be happening? Are there any Pegas saw owners that have experienced the same? Is there anything I should be concerned about? As always, thank you for the your response!
  9. Hi, Where did you get the chair from? Thanks!
  10. It seems that a lot of businesses are always willing to help when we are in the market for a machine. However, once the purchase is made and they have our money and something goes wrong with the machine, we are on our own. Thank you for sharing and I am sorry about your experience. I thought I was the only one that was a victim of poor customer service, LOL. I am very sensitive about customer service because I have been burned a few times. Reading the forums and doing research have helped me to weed out some poor customer service businesses, but then again...
  11. Pardon my ignorance, but what is hybrid scrolling?
  12. Oops! I just tried to order from Carter Products, they wanted $24.16 to ship it. Found theSTD1 at Hartvillehardware.com for $74.66 and no shipping charges.
  13. For those that have similar band saw as mine (Grizzly 14"), I just called Carter Products (888-622-7837) and spoke to Allan. I explained the specs. of my saw and the blade stabilizer I need is the STD1 model. I do not have to purchase any guides or any other parts.
  14. Thurman, I just visited the Carter Products web site. They have the CTR1 stabilizer for $82.95 to fit 14" to 18" band saws. I am calling them to see if it will fit my Grizzly.
  15. That is a good idea. From what I see the Pegas blades are 931/2" long, same size as my Grizzly band saw. I think I'll give them a try and see how it works after I order the stabilizer.
  16. As always, I thank you all for the input and information. Yes, I know it won't be the same as a Pegas scrolling band saw. I was trying to get as close as possible with a minimum investment. I have a Grizzly G055 which I am trying to convert to cut finer cuts. Now I am in search of 1/16" band saw blades.
  17. Has anyone tried the Carter Blade Stabilizer? Any options about it? Does it work as advertised? Thanks!
  18. Thank you all for your help, I appreciate it!
  19. Has anyone used alder wood for scrolling projects? If you have, what is your opinion and experience using it? Thank you for your comments!
  20. Yes, it would be easier using a computer, but unfortunately I am a zero with computers, LOL!
  21. Howdy, Does anyone know where to purchase a plastic alphabet letter stencil for tracing names? Thanks, Juan
  22. What scroll saw magazines are available? Which one would you recommend? Thanks!
  23. I was wondering if any one has used or is using the Niqua scroll saw blades. I realize this is an objective topic, so any opinion you may have will be appreciated. Compare to any other blades? Thanks!
  24. Thank you, Ray!
  25. Any information/experience about PS Wood scroll saw? I am considering purchasing a scroll saw and I like what I have seen about the saw. Thanks!
